Our beer sensory training services include a complete beer off-flavour sensory training kit, identification and resolution of beer off-flavours, and detailed beer tasting notes.

BEER SENSORY SOLUTIONS

Beer sensory analysis focuses on distinct elements related to taste, look, smell, and mouthfeel while tasting beer. Brewers and beer tasters use this information to assess the quality of each brew, including any defects or off-flavours.

FlavorActiV’s pharmaceutical grade, GMP Flavour Standards are safe to smell, taste and drink, and can be used in almost any liquid to impart a real flavour, off-note, or taint.

The beer flavour standards developed in FlavorActiV’s dedicated pharmaceutical facility in the UK are sold individually in packs of 5 capsules, with each capsule separately blister-packed to provide flavour protection and prolonged shelf life.
